Little mermaid - during winter with clothing - Efteling (Kaatsheuvel/NL)

Little mermaid - during winter with clothing.

De Kleine Zeemeermin (Est. 1970), it's a fairy tale about a little mermaid who falls in love with a handsome human prince and longs for him so much that she makes a deal with an evil sea witch. It is a fairy tale by Hans Christian Andersen. The statue was originally designed by Anton Pieck and modeled by Ton van de Ven.

 

It's striking that she wears more clothes in the winter. And perhaps even more special during the hot summers when she's the only one in this park showing bare breasts...

Winterefteling - an event during the winter months. The park is decorated in a pleasant winter atmosphere like open campfires, locations covered with snow and icicles, guilandes and much more. But without being to cold to visit..
